Newland Archer, a gentleman-lawyer from a privileged New York family, is set to marry the lovely May Welland. However, his encounter with May's cousin, the scandalous Countess Ellen Olenska, challenges his views on love and societal expectations. As he grapples with the constraints of their elite society, Archer questions the meaning of true innocence amidst the superficiality and rigid customs that govern their lives. This Pulitzer Prize-winning novel explores themes of freedom, choice, and the complexities of human relationships during the Gilded Age.
